MODULES demos do not build unless NStr() is called

[sgm0369]

If you do not make a call to NStr() in a module, the latter will not build with the error: error: Undefined GLOBAL label '.core.__STORE_STR'

Can you provide a small example please?

Hi David,I won’t be able to access my laptop until next week. But if you take the MODULES demo and comment out any code that calls NStr() directly or indirectly in a single module then you get the compile error.Il giorno 15 set 2025, alle ore 04:15, David Saphier ***@***.***> ha scritto:em00k left a comment (em00k/NextBuildStudio#32) Can you provide a small example please? —Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.You are receiving this because you authored the thread.Message ID: ***@***.***>

OK thanks - I will take a look.

ok, here it goes: 1. ModuleTemplate demo: it compiles fine out of the box 2. In Module003.bas, comment all L2Text that include a call to NStr(): 'L2Text(0,0,"MODULE "+NStr(VarLoadModule),42,0) 'L2Text(0,1,"PARAM1 "+NStr(VarLoadModuleParameter1),42,0) 'L2Text(0,2,"PARAM2 "+NStr(VarLoadModuleParameter2),42,0) 'L2Text(0,3,"COUNTER "+NStr(VarPoints),42,0) At this point, if you compile the modules again you will get these errors: =============================================================================================== NextBuild v9.0 : David Saphier / em00k - 15-May-2022 https://github.com/em00k/NextBuild ZX Basic Compiler : Jose Rodriguez https://zxbasic.readthedocs.io/ Cspect Emulator : Mike Dailly https://cspect.org =============================================================================================== Mode: Processing all valid Modules... --- Compiling Modules --- Main Source Dir: C:\Users\stegu\ZX\NextBuildv9\Sources\NextBuild_Examples\MODULES\ModuleTemplate Processing module: Module001.bas Processing module: Module002.bas Processing module: Module003.bas Error processing module Module003.bas: C:\Users\stegu\ZX\NextBuildv9\Sources\NextBuild_Examples\MODULES\ModuleTemplate\Module003.bas Reading configuration from: C:\Users\stegu\ZX\NextBuildv9\Scripts\nextbuild.config --- Using zxbc from: C:\Users\stegu\ZX\NextBuildv9\zxbasic1.18.1\src\zxbc\zxbc.py --- Processing precompiler settings from .bas header!
